    When traditional grid-following turbines are connected to the power grid on a large scale, issues such as a decline in the short-circuit ratio of the grid, weakened synchronization support capability, and reduced system inertia may arise. Grid-forming wind power generation technologies can mitigate fluctuations in system voltage and frequency, thereby improving the overall safety and stability of power system operation. Firstly, the grid-forming control system frameworks of two typical wind turbines are analyzed: the doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) and the permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG). Based on the most common control strategies, including droop control, virtual synchronous control, and model predictive control, the advantages and disadvantages of these two frameworks are discussed in terms of inertia support capability, overload capacity, and stability. Subsequently, from the perspective of performance improvement, the frequency regulation, voltage control, and robustness of the two models are compared and analyzed. Furthermore, the research progress in control performance enhancement technologies for grid-forming wind turbines are summarized and the future research directions and the key technical challenges that need to be addressed are explored, aiming to provide insights and references for the advancement of grid-forming technologies.

    To enhance the comprehensive performance of the manifold microchannel heat sink (MMCHS), a new manifold microchannel heat sink with rectangular ribs (MMCHS-RR) is proposed. Firstly, the three-dimensional numerical simulations are employed to investigate the effects of the arrangement of rectangular ribs, microchannel width, microchannel height, and the ratio of rectangular rib width to microchannel width on the thermal-hydraulic performance. Then the artificial neural network and a multi-objective genetic algorithm are used to optimize the structural parameters. Finally, the TOPSIS decision-making algorithm is applied to select the parameter combination with the best comprehensive performance from the Pareto front. After optimization, compared with the initial heat sink, the maximum temperature on the heated surface is reduced by 6.4 K, the average heat transfer coefficient is increased by 46.3%, and the total pressure drop is reduced by 1.85 kPa at an inlet flow rate of 6 m/s. The research results indicate that the heat sink with rectangular ribs arranged to bypass the jet holes of the inlet manifold and the outflow holes of the outlet manifold exhibits superior comprehensive performance.

    Biomass co-firing, green ammonia co-firing, and carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) have been identified as the three key pathways for the low-carbon transformation of coal-fired power. However, the practical promotion and application of these technologies is facing multiple constraints. For instance, biomass co-firing is limited by the volatility of raw material supply and the lack of boiler adaptability, green ammonia co-firing is economically unfeasible due to the high cost of green ammonia production, and CCUS is hindered by energy consumption and the lack of a CO2 utilization market. To address these difficulties, this paper proposes optimization countermeasures for the low-carbon transformation of coal-fired power from three dimensions: technological innovation, economic optimization, and policy synergy. It aims to synergistically promote the application of biomass co-firing, green ammonia co-firing and CCUS, facilitating the low-carbon transformation of coal-fired power.

    Aiming at the problem of temperature measurement error caused by distance measurement and visual angle change during UAV infrared patrol inspection of composite insulators, this paper proposes a method to improve the accuracy of infrared temperature measurement and ensure the accuracy and reliability of defect identification. Based on the built 110 kV composite insulator infrared temperature rise experimental platform, the system collects infrared image data at different shooting distances and angles, and uses the real temperature measured by the optical fiber temperature sensor as the calibration benchmark to build an infrared temperature measurement error sample set. Based on the data set, the radial basis function (RBF) neural network is used to establish the error correction model of infrared temperature measurement, and realize the nonlinear correction of the original infrared temperature measurement value. The results show that the average temperature difference of infrared thermometer after RBF model correction is reduced to 0.19℃ (the relative error is 2.07%), which is better than linear, nonlinear and exponential regression methods (the average temperature difference is 0.37~0.82℃), and has stronger generalization ability. This method effectively improves the temperature measurement accuracy of UAV infrared patrol inspections, and provides reliable technical support for the condition assessment of insulators.

    During UAV inspections on ultra-and extra-high-voltage transmission lines, the UAV can approach the lines to capture detailed information. However, too close distance between UAV and transmission lines increases the risk of electromagnetic interference or even collisions. Therefore, it is crucial to accurately obtain the distance between the UAV and the transmission lines. In order to solve this problem, a depth estimation network LapNet(Laplace Net) fused with Laplace residuals is proposed, and U-Net is used as the network infrastructure to construct a multi-scale feature pyramid. A LUB (Laplace U-Block) module is proposed to replace the ordinary convolutional layer of U-Net, and the Laplace pyramid residual structure is introduced into the LUB module to increase the network depth while retaining the high-frequency information in the depth features. This leads to the reconstruction of high-quality depth images for accurate measurement of monocular distances. According to the actual test, the average error of distance detection using UAV monocular lens is 4.786%, and the maximum error is 8.36%, which can realize the accurate measurement of the distance between UAV lens and line.

    To address the contradiction between dynamic response and steady-state performance in traditional fixed moment of inertia strategies of virtual synchronous generators (VSG) and the power oscillation problems, a virtual synchronous generator control strategy based on adaptive segmented moment of inertia is proposed. By analyzing the oscillation mechanism, the inertia adjustment interval are dynamically divided. When power fluctuations are severe, the moment of inertia is reduced to improve control speed. When power fluctuations have a slowing trend, the moment of inertia is increased to improve stability. Through this optimized design, VSG exhibits good parameter robustness in various operating modes, effectively suppressing low-frequency oscillations of active power and improving the accuracy of transient process control. Finally, MATLAB/Simulink simulation verifies the feasibility and correctness of the proposed method.

    In order to improve the surface characteristics of high-voltage composite bushings, two commercial liquid silicone rubbers are fluorinated using F2/N2 mixed gas. The electrical properties, physical and chemical properties, and hydrophobicity of the two liquid silicone rubber samples before and after fluorination are tested. The results shows that the DC flashover voltages of the two silicone rubber samples after fluorination have increased by more than 50% and 30% respectively. The two silicone rubber samples present different surface potential decay characteristics after fluorination. The surface conductivity of both is increased by 1~2 orders of magnitude, and the bulk conductivity does not change significantly. The increase in surface conduction caused by fluorination can accelerate the surface potential decay. Through ATR-IR analysis and SEM observation, C—F bonds are formed in the surface layer of the fluorinated samples, and micro-nano structuring appears on the surface of the fluorinated layer. The hydrophobicity test indicats that fluorination significantly has improved the hydrophobicity of the two liquid silicone rubber samples. Therefore, fluorination treatment is an effective means to enhance the surface performance of liquid silicone rubber used in high-voltage composite bushings.

Secondly, the abnormality degree and suspected probability of users' power consumption behavior are ranked, so that most abnormal users can be found by detecting only a few users with high abnormality degree. Finally, the proposed method is verified by small and large data sets respectively in the case analysis. The results show that the AUC score of this method can reach 0.8251, which has significant superiority. In addition, this method can not only effectively identify abnormal users, but also reduce the false alarm rate and improve the accuracy of detection, providing an efficient and reliable power consumption anomaly analysis tool for power companies.

    In order to overcome the problems of power delay and power cycling caused by the traditional low-pass filter (LPF) power allocation strategy in the hybrid energy storage system(HESS) of urban rail transit, a power allocation strategy based on two-layer LPF is proposed for urban rail HESS. The first layer of LPF prevents the traction network from being impacted by removing the extreme components in the power fluctuation. The second layer adopts an improved second-order filter transfer function through LPF to optimize the cutoff characteristics at the handover frequency and eliminate the integral effect of the first-order filter during the high-frequency response. Compared with traditional methods, the double-layer filtering strategy can optimize the power output of energy storage devices, reduce overcharge and overdischarge phenomena, extend battery life, and improve the dynamic response capability of the system. The simulation results show that the proposed strategy can effectively improve the voltage stability, energy-saving rate and response speed of the traction network, while reducing the depth of battery charging and discharging and prolonging the service life of energy storage devices.

    Ice covering on insulators is a major natural disaster that poses a threat to the safe operation of power grids, especially posing a severe challenge to the high-altitude and heavily ice-covered areas that strategic projects such as the West-to-East Power Transmission pass through. For this reason, this article systematically reviews the core research progress in the field of insulator icing. Firstly, it elaborates on the physical mechanism of icing and the coupling influence laws of its interaction with water droplet movement, environmental parameters, and electric fields. Then, the flashover characteristics of icing insulators are analyzed to reveal their nonlinear voltage characteristics and the development process of arcs. Finally, it summarizes and evaluates the applicability and limitations of three types of anti-icing measures, that is, structural optimization, active de-icing, and passive protection. The article points out that current research still lacks in the aspects of microscopic icing physics, multi-physical field coupling models, and insulators adaptability in extreme environments. In the future, efforts should be focused on the construction of intelligent anti-icing technology and the construction of a full-chain risk early warning system to support the reliable operation of future power grids.

    In the process of site selection and planning for substations in flood storage and detention areas, multi-source substations mainly use combination calculation to achieve site selection optimization, resulting in low efficiency in global search and insufficient economic efficiency. To this end, a GA-PSO hybrid optimization method for substation site selection considering the constraints of flood storage and detention areas is proposed, and relevant design and performance analysis are carried out. By analyzing regional hydrological and meteorological data, low-risk areas for site selection are determined, and the power load intensive range of substations is delineated according to the electricity demand of users in the area. By analyzing the overlap between areas with low hydrological risk and areas with high power load, the computable domain is determined and grid division is carried out. Taking the hydro meteorological conditions of the flood storage and detention area as constraints, multiple candidate sites are marked at the grid division. The GA-PSO algorithm is integrated to calculate the individual fitness of each candidate site, and hybrid optimization filtering operations such as selection, crossover, and variation are carried out according to the fitness to achieve the initial site selection planning objectives. The information and data of the initial planning site are updated, and continuously trained and iterated to screen out the site with the highest comprehensive fitness as the planning goal to complete site selection and optimization. The experimental results show that after applying the proposed method, the construction cost of the planned substation is controlled below 3 million yuan in each cycle, which is highly economical.

    After the DC composite through-wall bushing in the converter station is covered with snow, flashover may occur, causing power outages. This article presents a horizontal arrangement of contaminated composite hollow bushing in a large artificial climate laboratory, and conducts snow-covering flashover tests under direct current voltage. The results show that 50% withstand voltoage (U50) obtained by using a non-charged snow melting pressurization method is about 6.8% lower than U50 obtained by using a charged snow melting pressurization method. The U50 under the DC voltage of the snow-covered bushing decreases with the increase of salt density, but its characteristic index α is lower than the index obtained from the pollution test. When the salt density is 0.1mg/cm2, the U50 gradient under the horizontal arrangement of the snow-covering composite bushing is close to that under weak hydrophobicity of the contaminated bushing.

It also pioneers a proactive early warning mechanism empowered by graph reasoning, promoting the service model to shift from passive response to on-demand push. After a high-concurrency pressure test of 1 752 requests per second, the system's 95% request response time remains stably below 300 ms, achieving coordinated optimization in terms of timeliness, completeness, and robustness. This system provides a reusable technical path for the power industry to build an enterprise-level "digital standard library".
